I have a serious question too... If Pike is at wrong then why does Dave Chapelle get a show on television and he constantly makes fun of white people? And he's not the only comedian to ever make fun of a different race, but a small act of comedy by a fraternity at a small school, and they might get kicked off campus?

Apparently I live in a cave because I don't even know who Dave Chapelle is. Anyway, I can't imagine a situation where blackface would not be offensive, considering the history of it. I also think it's inherently more offensive for white people to make fun of black people than vice versa because in our society, white people are the ones in a position of power.
If these boys think that blackface is funny, then I'm afraid they need more education than a University is going to give them.
